With over 30 years’ experience in rail (starting as a Junior Station Assistant in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney), Peter has worked in a range of positions covering all modes of rail – from suburban passenger networks, light rail operations, freight networks – as well as 12 months in Taiwan with the commissioning of the high-speed rail line in that country.

This career history has left Peter in a great position to be able to appreciate the perspectives from both sides of the regulatory fence when it comes to rail safety matters.

Peter’s practical operational experience is coupled with formal tertiary qualifications including a Bachelor of Economics, a Bachelor of Science and a Master of Science degree specialising in Risk Management within the rail sector.
